What does the traditional July/August sales event period mean to you? Why is that the time all the manufactures have an "event"?

Oh Wow, I've been reading about the current situation where the new car dealers, and manufacturers of course, are offering new cars cheaper than a one-year-old car of the same make and model. This is so dumb it makes my teeth hurt! Come on folks. There are thousands of dealerships who make more money on their used cars than they do on the new ones. There are tens or hundreds of thousands of folks for whatever reason want or really need to sell their used vehicles. You may be certain that most of these people will figure out that they have to lower the price of their used cars in order to sell them against new vehicle prices. They will do this in a big hurry. There just is no choice. It will be price lower or don't sell, well, except to really dumb buyers. Indeed, it is likely that used prices are already falling. The falling price of the '08 models will bump the '07 model price down and right on down the line. Just hang on 30 to 60 days and you will see a big fall in used prices. The fun part is that we will then discover that this entire scam was developed and executed by new car dealers to attract attention to the big discounts on new '08s and '09s. Oh, I have this terrific ocean front lot for sale in Nevada. Fasbird

If the Cash For Clunkers Bill passes what effect will it have on the small used car lot's? My understanding is that the consumer will have a voucher for $3500-$4500 for there old car. Once the dealer takes in the car it goes to a central collection point where the block and tranny are removed and the car is destroyed. This will make a good $2K-$3K car non exsistent.

Is there a discussion on CVT transmissions anywhere? If not, I would be willing to contribute financially to have one set up.
